Applications

The Journaline data service is based on a standard that was internationally accepted by the WorldDMB forum in September 2007 and is available from ETSI as a free download. The data service is currently broadcast as part of DAB/DMB and DRM digital radio transmissions. It is suitable for virtually any broadcast platform due to its low data capacity consumption – a key objective for the system’s development. With Journaline’s hierarchical topic structure, users can browse all received information – both program-related and program-independent textual information – and select their favourite news items.

 

Availability

Decoder implementation available for licensing on Windows PC platforms, Linux PC platforms and Microcontroller platforms.
